Fried rice was on my mind when I was making my meal plans last week — and I decided to cook it up for Friday Night’s Dinner.

Instead of rice, which is “not allowed” on the Paleo diet — though it is one of those things some still eat on the Paleo diet — I had intended on substituting cauliflower.

Because I am without a food processor, I steamed and then mashed the cauliflower, instead of “ricing” it raw in the food processor — which led to a more mashed potato like consistency — so I went with the flow and just changed the recipe title to shrimp and grits.
